We focus on how Swift's particular brand of showmanship has propelled her to one of the most consistent fixtures of popular culture.

Endless Youth: The Fascination with Indie Sleaze

Hi guys! Welcome back to Two Girls One Culture, today we are discussing the 'Indie Sleaze' movement that appeared in popular culture from around 2006-2012, through the lens of the key musical and fashion influences. We discuss the attempted comeback of indie sleaze that has been circulating recently, pushed by the success of the Dare, who takes strong influence from the electro-clash side of the era. We also distinguish two separate sides of indie sleaze, the physical media of the time, and preciousness of a culture that existed pre-social media. Hope you guys enjoy, and see you soon! PS.
